At a Dallas mall on Camp Wisdom Rd, there was an unusual and frightening scene unfolding. It was Friday the 13th and the sight could not have gotten any freakier. There was a nude man who crashed a pickup truck into the Southwest Center Mall entrance on Friday. Upon crashing the truck into the mall, the man ran over several kiosks before he ran into the closed gates of a Champs Sports store.
As strange as it was, the eccentricism did not end here. After crashing into the Champs store, the suspect then helped himself to the store’s clothing, including a new pair of Nike Jordans.
Police arrested the man inside of the store and were able to return the shoes. The man was taken by ambulance for a medical evaluation. It is believed that he may have a mental health condition, due to the deranged behavior and reasoning the man displayed on that day. This had to be more than a freak accident.
The suspect has been identified as Arthur Walker. Prior to this mall incident, there had been a domestic disturbance call not too far from the mall. A woman had mentioned that there was a man in a red pickup truck, who bore only a blanket demanding her to exit her vehicle. She then drove away.
This prompted the men to go on a crashing spree at the local mall. His nude exposure and bazaar behavior was possibly influenced by narcotic use of some kind.
